Two numbers that add together to get 0 are called additive inverses of each other.
Note: I am not 100% sure that this is the correct way to solve this problem. It is just my best attempt to help.
Keep in mind that every percentage can be made into a decimal. 12% = 0.12 because 12% is also 12/100 as a fraction.
Since a percentage is the original number multiplied by the percent, you can solve this problem by dividing the number given by the percent. Be sure to turn the percent into a decimal to make it easier. Your work should look like this:
12% = 0.12
1,000 / 0.12 = 8,333.33
That is the first step. How you have to finish the problem and find what 88% is. To do this, you can simply multiply 88%, or 0.88, times the answer you get in the first part. Your work should look like this:
88% = 0.88
0.88 * 8,333.33 = 7,333.33
Now to check your work, you can add 7,333.33 and 1,000 to see if it equal the total of 8,333.33
7,333.33 + 1,000 = 8,333.3
Since it is equal, this is your answer.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The formula of slope is "rise over run", where the "rise" (means change in y, up or down) and the "run" (means change in x, left or right)
In this problem
The tangent of angle of 5 degrees is equal to the quotient of "rise over run"
Let
y ----> the rise of the ramp
x ----> the run of the ramp

we have

substitute and solve for x



Answer:
use additional and multiplication ONLYY
Y = 5/2x + 5
or
y = 2.5x + 5
